While the LHC is ramping up for it's second run at yet higher centre-of-mass energy, the experimental Collaborations are not only preparing for this run, but also ensuring that the maximum amount of information is extracted from the data taken in 2011 and 2012 at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 and 8 TeV, respectively. Many precision standard model measurements have been carried out, spanning...

A detailed review on the properties of the Higgs boson, as measured with the ATLAS experiment at the LHC, will be given. The results shown here use approximately 25 fb-1 of pp collision data, collected at 7 TeV and 8 TeV in 2011 and 2012. The measurements of the mass, couplings properties and main quantum numbers will be presented. Prospects for the upcoming Run2, starting in May 2015, will be...

Searches for the anomalous quartic gauge coupling of two photons to two W bosons (WWAA) were made at LEP and Tevatron. More recently many searches have been performed by the CMS and ATLAS collaborations at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Among the processes sensitive to these couplings are the Wy and yy -> WW production. In hadron colliders, yy -> WW events where the W bosons decay into...
